Falling behind
Tuesday, October 31st, 2006So I didn’t get my free read done in time to meet PBW’s challenge. Stuff came up—both writing and non-writing—that slipped into higher slots on the priority list, and I needed another day with it. I’ll still finish it and post it…just not today.
Along with a whole lot of crap rearing up and biting […]
Child of the Corn Part II
Saturday, October 28th, 2006So, while still recovering from my night with the creepy short kid, I decided to check out my horoscope.
Astrology for Writers, Editors and Filmmakers
(This note applies to all): This is good until the end of November. Mercury retrograde comes out to play on the 28th, so watch the computer glitches and incomplete […]
Child of the Corn
Saturday, October 28th, 2006The short kid freaked me out not once, but twice last night. He creeps silently into our room, around the bed to my side, and then he just stands there and stares at me until I wake up. I’m a sound sleeper, but I guess silent staring is creepy enough to wake even me […]
New reviews
Friday, October 27th, 2006Last night, before the cable internet went kerflooey, I was catching up on posting reviews (the links for which can be found on each book’s page). Here’s a preview:
From Isabelle of RRT Erotic:
Shannon Stacey has crafted a mystical tale that tantalizes the imagination. Khail and Bridget are each damaged souls who find redemption with […]
Conversation with Zach…
Thursday, October 26th, 2006…the hero (and leading ghost) of In the Spirit:
Zach: The sex scenes are too short.
Shan: I’m not going to give a blow by blow, so to speak, of every grunt and thrust.
Zach: You’re making me look like a two-minute wonder, here.
Shan: You’re a dead guy in love with a not-dead woman, and you’re worried […]
The verdict…
Tuesday, October 24th, 2006Well, the overwhelming vote was for leaving my site alone. I’ve made some notes on tweaking some of the navigation that’s an issue. And I was thinking earlier today about the static entry page. I have no idea if that would screw up my permalinks somehow—if the blog moved to a /blog directory. Since […]
Website neuroses…free book!
Monday, October 23rd, 2006Every time Romancelandia turns it’s attention/love/claws to website design, I start getting a complex.
I know…me? A complex? Never. *listens for peals of laughter from those who put up with me on a daily basis*
I start looking at mine thinking…OMG is it good enough or should I have a static home page because new readers shouldn’t […]
The first snowball of the season…
Sunday, October 22nd, 2006…has been thrown. The drive up north was interesting, with lots of pink and purple-tinged, VERY close lightning that’s not quite as pretty when you’re hauling a 4-place trailer with an aluminum clamshell.
So we’re sitting in the camper the first night, and I decided to step outside for a smoke since […]
Self-editing and a new review
Friday, October 20th, 2006It’s Friday!!! I know it is, since I missed garbage day yesterday.
Anyway, this morning I’m taking a few minutes to enter my handwritten notes on Widowmaker into the word file—it cuts down on the amount of writing crap I take up north. Even though almost every aspect of my writing now takes […]
